Recombinations

A

represent unusual combinations that we are unlikely to see, due to the gene linkage.

Q

Linked Genes

A

Rarely, genes are linked; they tend to be inherited together. This would be because they are so close on the chromosome(their location are close)

Q

Gap 2 (G2) Phase

A

Cell continues to grow, and makes microtubules and other proteins for division.

It is also a checkpoint to ensure DNA was replicated accurately.
